Hello followers,
Welcome Sunday!
Soon this month of July will end, and August will start.
August is a special month for Dan and me.
Everything you do does matter to the universe: you are waking up—the way you carry yourself out of your bed, the way you stretch your arms to start your day—your will to keep on going despite the fear and uncertainty, your sigh when things get rough, your sleepless nights, your mere existence.
There is always a void in this vast galaxy that only your presence can fill; you complete an exact constellation, you make that one story complete, you are a certain piece within this huge puzzle that all of us are in.
— Ren Ednalig
As I start to reminisce, it will be 42 years of marriage on August 9th.
Our journey started in early 1980 with a yes to a part-time job.
We all have been through hard times and need inspiration from time to time.
And Dan and I are able to share inspiration stories through this platform called the blog.
We are very humble and grateful to our followers.
Thank you!
As I recalled, a friend heard me talk at my full-time job that I was having a hard time meeting my bills.
During that time, I was living on my own, after a failed relationship and a health issue, a bleeding ulcer.
She told me about this part-time job working in the evening on the phones.
I applied and was hired, however; I was not that great on the phones.
But that did not matter to Dan for he later advanced me to the typewriter.
It was meant to be!
This would be the start of Dan and my journey together.
I call it FATE.
This moment is to keep treasured in my heart.
Continued tomorrow our first date.
THE WORD OF THE DAY-WORTHWHILE
Nothing comes easy.
Nothing comes overnight and you may not be where you want to be for weeks, months or even years.
But eventually you will be where you want to be if you do not give up.
And trust me the wait is worth it.
You will smile at yourself for waiting it out through some seriously hard and unsatisfying times.
More than anyone else you will be proud of yourself.

CHERISH JOY
They may be fleeting, but wonder and joy are fundamental to our lives, bringing us to forward illuminating what is worthwhile.
Allow yourself to feel it!
Embrace the expansiveness to recognize your joy and celebrate it, even if it cannot be pinned in place.

PHRASE TO REMEMBER; Health is Wealth.
Remember that you are worthy of love, respect, and happiness.
Embrace your strengths and honor your vulnerabilities, for they are the building blocks of your resilience and growth.
Your worthiness does not need to hinge on external validation or achievements, but rather on the inherent value that resides within you.
So, as you embark upon this new day, hold your head high and carry this truth with you!
May your morning be filled with hope, purpose, and a deep sense of self-worth that propels you towards a fulfilling and joyful journey.
It is always important to change your routine around you but continue keeping a healthy lifestyle.
Dan and I welcome you to go to the tag words and explore our posts.
Until Monday, happiness is not about the events going on in your life;
it is about how you handle them.
It is about falling down and standing up straighter than you did before.
It is about realizing that nothing comes easy.
